Snake Woman

About This Movie

So, 'Snake Woman' is this really intriguing blend of horror and mystery with a gritty vibe. Set in the bustling streets of Taipei, it opens with a chilling murder that sends waves through the community. Detective Koh Kang-young is kind of a hard-nosed character, and he’s got this almost obsessive approach to solving the case. The atmosphere is thick with tension, and there’s something unsettling about the way the story unfolds, especially with the practical effects that bring the snake elements to life. The performances feel real, like you can almost taste the desperation in the air. It's distinct in how it doesn't just rely on jump scares but builds this slow dread that lingers. Really worth digging into if you're into atmospheric thrillers.
